Dave Grohl has admitted he was kicked out of a recording studio after interrupting a session with Mark Ronson and Queens of the Stone Age.

Earlier this week, the producer and QOTSA frontman Josh Homme told Newsbeat the Foo Fighters singer had stormed in on them.

But now Dave has given his side of the story.

He told Radio 1's Nick Grimshaw, he didn't want to "upset the Uptown Funk dude", so he crawled out.

"So Queens of the Stone Age were recording about three doors down from us on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood, while we were making our record," Dave explains.

"And just up the street from both of these venues is a little tequila bar.

"I went up there one night after recording, it was me and some friends," he continues.

They then had - what they thought - a brilliant idea.

"We thought, 'Hey let's go down to the Queens of the Stone Age' because they are the hardest, partying rock band. But we've had a lot of tequila," he says.

They didn't know they'd be interrupting a serious album-making recording session with one of the world's best producers.

On Thursday, Mark Ronson and Josh Homme revealed Dave may have been "drunk".

And because they needed to get some work done, someone had to get Dave out. That's someone was Mark Ronson.

"I didn't realise that it was the first day that Josh [Homme] had started doing vocals," explains Dave.

"He was doing this really beautiful song, something that meant a lot to him and then I just exploded in the studio like, 'Arrrr arrrrr.'"

After causing a scene, he was then politely asked to leave.

"Mark turned to me and was like, 'No, no, no, you've got to get out of here, you've got to get out of here.'"

"And I did. I dropped onto my knees and I crawled out of the studio."
